Electric & Power Assisted E-Bikes for Sale
You love everything about cycling — except having to navigate those steep hills! An electric bicycle, also referred to as an -bike, gives you the best of both worlds.
An electric bike is equipped with a battery-powered motor, which is designed to complement pedaling rather than replace it. Many models also provide the ability to set the power level to meet your style of riding. Having been proven in the European markets, Electric bikes are rapidly growing in popularity throughout Australia, and you can find a large selection of high-quality models right here at BikeExchange.
Types of Electric Bikes
E-bikes can be divided into two main categories:
1. Pedelec E-Bikes
The more common type of E-bike is the Pedelec. This includes an auxiliary power source that cannot exceed 250 watts and typically no manual throttle control. The pedelec system purely provides proportional power assistance while the pedals are being turned. With a pedelec bike, no power assistance is provided at speeds in excess of 25 kph.
The Pedelec idea has been widely adopted as the ‘standard’ E-bike, with the likes of Bosch, Shimano and even Yamaha providing motor and battery systems for bike brands to use.
2. Power Assisted
These bikes are equipped with an auxiliary motor of up to 200 watts (legal number) and a throttle that can push the motor to a maximum speed of 25kph. The pedal assist system activates the motor while you’re pedaling.
Who Can Benefit From Electric Bikes?
Electric bikes are ideal for any rider who wants to enjoy the benefits of cycling, but without the heavy exertion that comes with climbing steep hills. They’re also great for extended cycling excursions, as they allow riders to conserve their energy. What’s more, e-bikes offer an eco-friendly alternative to commuting to and from work or school in an automobile.
